Fatboy,
Bloody envious to say the least!
Looks like the 9.3mm's are worth every penny spent.
The original Hydros won't feed for me at all in my 9.3x64, being way too blunt, but these look just like the 286gn PP Woodies - no dramas there!

Did you use them in a 9.3x62mm & what would the extra impact velocity using the "hard" ones do on buffalo?
Any of these in .404's in the pipeline?

What did you end up using for each one & load please?

Oh by the way thanks mate your .404 load of 82gns of AR2209 (2240fps average) works a treat in my .404, bit low at point of aim at 50m with my CZ, had to get to 85gn to get there.
Von Gruff & Eagle27's 350gn cast load of 63gn AR2209 was absolutely bloody brilliant!
No flies on their 21gn Red dot either, split hairs between them.
Keep up the good work mate
Cheers
93x64mm

Mate the new Hydro's with the plastic cap should solve your feeding issues.

I used 59 grains of 2208 with a magnum primer under the 270 grain ACP (FATBOY) which is a medium for everything and got 2480 fps.
I have used R-17 and got 2540 fps.

I tested some new 230 grain .338's today so they wont be far away.
375 and 458 are next but he does intend to do from 6mm up and he owns a 585 Nyati so he will go big.

In the name of science I shot 3 goats and two pigs today with the new 338's.
Never got any back.

Here are two that came from my dirt back stop at 100 yards.
